Scientists funded by Facebook CEO tell him to rein in Trump

Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg speaks at Georgetown University, Thursday, Oct. 17, 2019, in Washington. BOSTON -- Dozens of scientists doing research funded by Mark Zuckerberg say Facebook should not be letting U.S. President Donald Trump use the social media platform to "spread both misinformation and incendiary statements."wrote the Facebook CEO on Saturday

The letter calls the spread of "deliberate misinformation and divisive language" contrary to the researchers' goals of using technology to prevent and eradicate disease, improve childhood education and reform the criminal justice system. The others are Martin Kampmann of the University of California-San Francisco and Jason Shepherd of the University of Utah. All have grants from a Chan Zuckerberg Initiative program working to prevent, cure and treat neurodegenerative disorders including Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease.

The letter objects specifically to Zuckerberg's decision not to at least flag as a violation of Facebook's community standards Trump's post that stated "when the looting starts, the shooting starts" in response to unrest in Minneapolis over the videotaped killing of George Floyd, a black man, by a white police officer. The letter's authors called the post "a clear statement of inciting violence.

More 1984 type groupthink.

He wont after the hearing mark became complicite to trumps behaviur. It either scared him into submition or they have something on him.

Facebook try's to monitor posts and I am done with Facebook.

Facebook already censors too much. I’ve begun weaning off of it. DeleteFacebook

Left wing, globalist....poison ..

Since when do social media 'czars' tell the POTUS what to do...

'Rein in Trump? Seriously? For what? Promoting the safety and security of U.S. citizens? Encouraging peaceful protests? For his opposition towards rioters, looters, arsonists, vicious thugs and murderers? What kind of savages are these 'scientists'?

What rein in the truth so the liberals don’t hear it.

Science is a methodology, not and ideology. We need to stop funding and listening to these leftist “scientists”. They are not interested in actual science.

Hahaha “reign in Trump” and when your done that can you find the coronavirus vaccine and walk on water? 😂

DeleteFacebook

And.....that should truly frighten all of you. We live in democracies. Information scuttling is what happens in totalitarian regimes. Allow all voices, even those you don’t like, or prepare for a dystopia.

Fascists

But CBC, Global, CTV can do it?🤔

I love science I hate scientists from liberal art colleges that want Marxism and the death of free speech!

deAdder

Facebook is greedy, they nickel and dime you. He only wants the money with that mentality of what’s in it for me. Mark Zuckerburg is a Trumper everybody. Disgraceful!

'Scientists' lol 😆 😂 🤣

Facebook is very invasive. I dropped them a long time ago.

We have all told him to reign in Trump. He doesn’t seem to care.

Well that's hardly surprising. In other news if you go through a car wash in a convertible you might get wet

🤔

Ha!
